“the best @chrisappleton1 #stregispuntamita @stregispuntamita,” the “White Lotus” star captioned his Instagram post.
In his carousel of pics, Gage, 27, and Appleton, 39, posed for a picture while sitting on top of an ATV. The duo also took a selfie with helmets and bandanas over their faces while inside the vehicle.
The celebrity hairstylist — who has worked with the likes of Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez — also shared snaps from their trip on his respective Instagram account, along with the caption “Joyride.”
Appleton’s roundup of photos also included a selfie of the men shirtless in the ocean.
Gage and Appleton’s comments were quickly flooded with people who speculated whether the post meant the pair were Instagram-official.
“You guys are too cute!!!!!! Yay!!” commented celebrity extensionist Priscilla Valles.
“IG official ,” wrote makeup artist Mary Phillips.
“Nothing soft about this launch ,” added writer Todd Kingston Plummer.
“i am screeammmingggg,” exclaimed YouTuber Claudia Sulewski.
Neither Gage nor Appleton have confirmed their relationship status.
Page Six has reached out to Gage’s reps but did not immediately hear back.
Earlier this month, the “You” star got candid when he compared navigating his career to his love life.
“I do think everything works out the way it’s supposed to, but I wasn’t always able to see that,” he told The Hollywood Reporter. “I’m getting better at it every year. The older I get, the more I realize I have no control over anything.”
He continued, “It’s kind of like dating — when you’re seeking a partner, you never find somebody. People can feel that you’re trying too hard.”
Gage added that “the best thing to do in this industry is to build a full life outside of your work and have your work be just a part of that life.”
“This is an accessory to my happiness, not the source of my happiness.”
Honestly…good for them.
